Parsers VC is a venture capital data platform, running since 2019. It keeps a structured, continuously updated database of startups, venture capital firms and other investors, funding rounds, post-money valuations, founders and executives, and venture news. The data is collected around the clock by our own crawlers, checked by analysts and kept current by the companies themselves. Use it on the website to find, filter and export lists of startups and investors, or query the same data through a REST API built for products and AI agents.
Trusted by teams at a16z, McKinsey, HubSpot, Intercom, Bright Data and StartEngine.
WHAT IS IN THE DATABASE
• 900,000+ startups and tech companies: website, description, founding year, location, industry tags, team size, total raised, last round and its stage, investors, valuation, social profiles and contact details
• 28,000+ VC firms and other investors: investment stages and types, the categories and regions they invest in, portfolio, partners and recent activity
• 80,000+ founders, partners and executives with their roles and experience
• 100,000+ funding rounds with amounts, dates, stages and participants, plus post-money valuations
• Venture news: funding announcements, launches and other market events, linked to the companies they mention
Records are linked to each other: a startup profile shows its rounds, investors, valuation, team and press mentions, and an investor profile shows its portfolio, partners, focus and latest deals. Coverage is global and not limited to any region or sector. We deliberately track not only the headline names but also regional funds, early-stage startups and less media-visible segments that large platforms tend to under-represent.
HOW THE DATA STAYS ACCURATE AND FRESH
• Continuous collection. Our crawlers work 24/7 across hundreds of thousands of sources: fund and startup websites, news outlets and press releases, social networks, specialised catalogues and announcement feeds. New companies and events reach the database within hours rather than in monthly batches, and funding announcements on social channels are picked up within minutes.
• Structured events, not just mentions. Language models turn what the crawlers find into events (a round closed, a fund launched, a partner joined) and match each one to the right company.
• Automated pre-moderation. Before a record enters the main database, it passes duplicate detection, validation of the key fields (name, website, stage, geography, sector) and noise filtering.
• Review by analysts. Prominent funds, notable startups, funding rounds and key team members are reviewed by our analysts, who refine stages, amounts and deal participants.
• Updates from the companies themselves. Founders and investors claim their profile by verifying an e-mail address on the company's domain, then keep the description, team, funding rounds, portfolio and news up to date.
• Traceability. Every record carries the time it was created and last updated, and key fields keep their source. Spotted an error? Report it and we fix it: we treat data quality as an ongoing service, not a one-time delivery.
ON THE WEBSITE
• Startup directory: filter by category, keywords, location, founding year, team size, total raised and the date, amount and stage of the last round.
• VC firm directory: filter investors by keywords, location, the categories and regions they invest in, portfolio size, date of last activity and founding year.
• People directory: founders, partners and executives, each linked to the companies they work at.
• Company profiles: funding rounds, valuation, investors, team, contacts and press mentions for startups; portfolio, partners, investment stages and categories, recent deals and news for investors.
• Export to XLSX: up to 1,000 rows per file. Startup exports include founders, team size, valuation, last round, total raised, investors, e-mail, phone and social profiles (LinkedIn, X, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Medium, AngelList, Product Hunt); investor exports include investment stages and types, headquarters, e-mail, phone and social profiles. Every row links back to its profile.
• Dashboard and news feed: live database counts, the latest funding rounds and the newest startups, investors and people.
• Trusted badge: marks companies whose website is live and their own and whose profile describes a real, working business.
• Add or claim your company: create a startup or investor profile from a website URL (the public information is gathered within a minute), or claim an existing profile and edit it.
API FOR PRODUCTS AND AI AGENTS
The REST API serves the same database as the website: startups, funds, people, funding rounds, valuations, portfolios, news and a signals feed of changes.
• OData-style queries: $filter, $select, $expand, $orderby, $top, $skip and $count. One request can ask for AI startups in London funded in the past year, with their investors attached.
• Categories and facets: slice startups and investors by industry, stage and country, and size a market across every slice in a single request.
• Signals feed: new funding rounds, portfolio additions and other changes since any date, each with the date it happened and the date it was detected. Funds often add a company to their portfolio page before anyone writes about it, and the signal shows it first.
• Made for AI agents: an assistant can register itself, confirm your e-mail address and get a key in about two minutes. Machine-readable instructions and an OpenAPI 3.0 description are published, and the API works with Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, ChatGPT with a connector, n8n, Make, Zapier or any tool that can make HTTP requests.
• Fair metering: a credit buys one record, not one HTTP call, so the same data costs the same however you page it. Searches, lookups and counts cost one credit, errors are free, and every response reports what it cost.
• No per-minute rate limit, every endpoint on every plan, and a spending cap that protects you from runaway bills.
Typical uses: CRM and lead-base enrichment, investor-startup scoring and matching models, portfolio and competitive landscape monitoring, custom dashboards, reports and research products.
THE WHOLE DATABASE
For data warehouses, analytics and products that need everything, the complete database is available under licence as daily dumps of startups, funds, people, funding rounds, investments and news in JSON and CSV, which is far cheaper than paging it through the API.
WHO USES PARSERS VC
• Venture funds and corporate investors: deal sourcing, portfolio and competitor analysis, spotting the companies that have just raised.
• Founders raising a round: a list of investors who back their category and region, checked for recent activity and portfolio, ready for a CRM or an outreach tool.
• Sales and business development teams: recently funded startups as lead lists with websites, e-mails, phones and social profiles. A fresh round means a fresh budget.
• Analysts, consultants and researchers: market maps, sector sizing and competitor benchmarks on the complete list rather than a sample.
• Product teams and AI agents: live venture data inside products, internal tools and automated workflows.
